In order to explore the penetration damage law of a circumferential multi-linear explosively-formed projectile(EFP)with red-copper as liner material,a red-copper EFP equivalent projectile with length-diameter ratio of 1∶5 was fired by 25 mm-caliber gun.The damage law of the red-copper projectile penetrating Q235 steel was studied from two aspects(e.g,the impact speed of the red copper projectile from 1 000 m/s to 1 700 m/s and the impact angle from 0 to 70),and the penetration law of red-copper rod projectile was established.The Johnson-Cook constitutive-model parameters and fracture-failure parameters of red copper used in this experiment were fitted,and the accuracy of the simulation model was verified by the penetration test results.The results show that the Johnson-Cook constitutive-model parameters and fracture-failure parameters obtained from this tensile test can accurately describe the fracture failure behavior of red-copper during penetration.At 800-2 000 m/s,the penetration depth of copper EFP simulated-projectile increases linearly with the increase of penetration speed.When the impact angle of the projectile is 40,the deflection angle of the projectile reaches the maximum 6.35.When the impact angle of the projectile is between 10° and 30°,the penetration depth of the projectile can reach the maximum.This study can offer reference for the power design of circumferential multi-linear EFP warhead.
